SoGE is a Star Wars Total Conversion for SoaSE: Rebellion with it's roots in the Homeworld 2 mod Star Wars: Warlords which features the two primarily sides of the Galactic Civil War, the Clone Wars, and the Yuuzhan Vong War. The current public version works for Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion 1.90 and, with or without, all DLC. Rated #6 players choice in MOTY 2014. An editors choice in MOTY 2015.
Made by the talented Maxloef, the CIS will have an even more fearsome looking Lucrehulk in their fleets in the next version of SoGE.
Awesome that you guys are working on the mod still! But I have to be honest that I prefer the older model.
This Lucrehulk is alright but if I had to describe why I prefer the older one it's because this version looks far too 'clean' and the older one with it's distinct paneling and dirty grey texture looked more realistic, more similar to a converted trade ship.

Might also have something to do with the color contrast.
I understand this is your guys mod and you're free to do what you want and not beholden to everyone but I just wanted to add my opinion. Cheers.
I liked the old Venator too.
